The Clear Agency Press Day

Welcome back!

I was recently very lucky to get an invite to the clear agency's press day and since previous posts about press days have been quite popular I thought I would do another one. There was so much at this press day but I decided just to include a few of my favourite bits. Enjoy!

The first brand I was especially excited to be seeing was "This Is A Love Song". If you haven't heard of this brand you need to, now. Click here for their full site. All of their designs are inspired by pop culture so you are bound to find something that reflects your tastes. 

The accessories from TIALS were so beautiful I just wanted to snap all of them up. I particularly liked the boom box inspired clutches and jewellery. I could definitely see myself rocking one of their chokers and matching bracelets for a night out with a simple black or white dress. You may not be able to see by the photo but the patterns are all made up of tiny individual beads! Very impressive!

If I were to buy just one item from the TIALS range it would be the statement collared shirt to the far left of the above photo. Just think of the endless possibilities there are to a bold printed monochrome shirt. Buy it in a larger size for an oversized feel then pair it with jeans and your favourite high-tops, instant urban chic! 

The next brand definitely on my "to-watch" list would be the jewellery from Gina Stewart Cox. If you love simplicity in your favourite metals this is the brand for you. I love the simple profile of a lions head on a long delicate chain. Perfect for those days when you want to spruce up your look with minimal fuss accessories.  

The matching ring, bangle and earrings are just as gorgeous. I think they would add the perfect amount of detail to an outfit you just need to add a little something to. 

But if lion heads are not your thing you could always go for a american indian skull motif. I think these would look great at festivals, especially the roped necklace. 

Another one of my favourite brands at the press day was Unif. However due to their unique designs and copywrite I was not allowed to take photos. I do guarantee that their newest collection is out of this world, with amazing textures, a whole load of colours and just the right amount of sass! To check it out click here. 

  

I hope you enjoyed this post! Speak to you all soon!

OOTD: Cross Country

Welcome back. 

I love layering recently even though it is warming up here in the UK. I think it gives your outfit a hint of hippy chic, but also keeps that spring breeze at bay.

I entitled this look cross country as I feel like a bit of a country girl when wearing knee high socks and flannel. Enjoy!

Sunglasses: Primark.

Denim Jacket: Vintage DKNY.

Flannel Shirt: Pull and Bear.

Dress: Forever 21.

Knee Highs: Primark.

Shoes: Topshop.

This outfit is so comfortable and perfect for running errands in. I love the timeless flannel shirt as it goes with absolutely everything and I know it won't go out of style any time soon.

Review: Love Lettuce Face Mask

Welcome back!

Recently I went to a Lush store to pick up the usual bath bombs for my routinely Sunday soak. However whilst I was in there I met the most lovely Lush staff member who gifted me a pot of love lettuce face mask. Now, I have never tried a Lush face mask before, please don't shoot! I am just a bath bomb girl, but I thought as it was given to me through such good will I would give it a go. 

On the pot the product is described as an effective, exfoliating face mask that gives normal to oily skin a radiant glow. I have combination skin so I thought that it should work just fine on me. The face mask's main ingredients are almond shells, almond oil and lavender oil. 

Once I opened the pot I was overwhelmed by how fresh the product smelt. It was like walking through a fresh produce market. The colour was also very natural looking so I knew straight away there were no nasty ingredients. The texture of the product is also very thick and clay like which is what I like in a heavy-duty facial mask. 

On my skin the mask felt extremely thick but once it dried it thinned out a bit. When I applied the product I could really feel the almond shells so it was definitely exfoliating my skin and cleaning out all the oils. I left the mask on for ten minuets as instructed by the packaging. When it was time to take the mask off my skin felt really tight and I couldn't really move my face. This is how most facial treatments feel on my skin though so I wasn't worried. 

I removed the mask with warm water. It was very easy to get off once you have done a little scrubbing. I am actually really impressed with the results. My skin not only felt silky smooth but my redness had seemed to have disappeared entirely! This definitely gets a huge thumbs up from me.
